I'd suggest /usr/doc/COPYRIGHT (since that's the first place I looked when
I wanted to make exactly this point). I think /usr/doc/INSTALL is supposed
to contain a contributors list (judging from the current install-floppy
build process -- but I haven't used install floppies since NetBSD 0.8 :-) ),
but it would probably be handy to have an obviously-named file with both the
terms and conditions and the contributors to whom they apply.
